//! The single path grammar used by every traversal operation.
//!
//! A dot separates segments. `\.` embeds a dot in a key, `\\` embeds a
//! backslash, and `\*` embeds a star. Every other escape is rejected so a path
//! is reversible.
//!
//! A bare `*` segment is reserved: it means "each child here" to the commands
//! that accept a pattern, and [`parse_path`] refuses it rather than reading it
//! as a key. `*` is a legal key in JSON, so [`join_path`] escapes it — a
//! document carrying one is still addressable, as `\*`.
//!
//! A segment may be empty, because `""` is a legal key in JSON and YAML — npm
//! writes one into every `package-lock.json` as the root package. Rejecting it
//! did not make it unreachable, only unspeakable: [`join_path`] still rendered
//! `["packages", ""]` as `packages.`, so `paths` emitted addresses that `value`
//! and `set` then refused, and the reversibility this grammar exists to
//! guarantee did not hold.
//!
//! The one sequence with no spelling is `[""]` on its own: it renders as the
//! empty string, which names no path at all. A `""` key at the document root is
//! therefore unaddressable, and that is the only hole left.
